Irresistible pseudo-solution:

And unbelievably it took LONGLINERMEN, but no match, at least not for me.

@DW, Awesome!
I hope this reply ends up in the right spot.
Empower – *Recurling
*AI confirms. Couldn’t find it in the few online dictionaries.

MOWER – RECOUPLING
MOWER-RECOUPLING after a brief flirtation with POLICEWOMEN. A good grid with quite a few options, perhaps?
Looking forward to seeing you, RF and Kanishk, my lovelies.
Good luck and happy Monday, everyone!
We think alike today Miss Irim for I got MOWER – RECOUPLING too.
Waiting for Kanishk-boy with his solution.
OA for me. Took a little while though.

Welcome empurpling
OA – I had Recoupling and didn’t see mower
WELCOMER-RECOUPING
Womenpower & Recoupling
Not the prettiest solve but both words were accepted by LB.
I saw Welcoming very quickly but I could not find a word with which to partner it.
WELCOMER RECOUPING
EMPOWER RECOUPLING
I wonder why womenpower is accepted but not menpower ?
Also WIMPLER* RECOUPING
*A New English Dictionary on Historical Principles. 1888 “a waving lock of hair”
Iffy solution:
GURP* POLICEWOMEN
*Gurp is slang for getting drunk. In Wiki. But also is a Manx Gaelic word for “haunch”
Mower recoupling
Empower recoupling
Womenpower recoupling
MOWER-RECOUPLING
Unpower recompiling
MOWER RECOUPLING after thinking I must be missing something obvious with POLICEWOMEN.
I definitely thought I was – I stared at it for a wee while before giving up!
